Question

[*addy*]

I was talking about this with a friend a while ago...

In the future, if you have kids... are you going to tell them you used drugs? What are you going to say?

In a way, it's strange because a parents job is to sort of help the kid avoid such things, but if you tell them all your "drug stories" would that somewhat condone it? Would you tell them EVERYTHING... or just yeah you partied a bit when you were younger?

I think I'd tell them...

i'd give my son or daughter
7 hits of acid if they wanted it.

then while peaking on acid.

SCARE THE LIVING FUCK OUT OF THEM.


then they wont do acid nor any drugs.

yea i'd tell my kids (LIKE I'D EVER HAVE KIDS) that i do drugs.
they'll take 1 look at me and never touch drugs... hahaha...

i have a kid. when he gets older if he asks if i did drugs i'll tell him and i'll be honest with him. i probably won't go into every detail but i'll answer any questions he has (if he wants to ask me) and i hope that him and i have a good enough relationship that he can feel comfortable talking to me about drugs.
of course i won't encourage him to do drugs, but i will encourage him to educate himself and do some research BEFORE he tries ANYTHING. i figure if he wants to try them he's going to, and i would rather he let me know about it and was straightforward with me than sneak around and not tell me.

Yes...I won't lie to my children....of course i'll encourage them not to do drugs, but I wont deny the fact that i've done them b4.

[~lazee_grrl~]

yeah..if i had kids..i'd probably tell them~..

i think i'll do what my mom did

when she thought i was an appropriate age, she mentioned it. i didn't ask any further questions when she initially hinted at it, cuzi was a little younger than i am now and just didn't care, because i wasn't interested in drugs

when i got a bit more curious, i pushed her a little to tell me more. she could have chose to say "i did it once"
but she didn't
she told me what she had done, and it just made me think and stuff

i really think it depends on what my kids are like. if they are responsible and mature, i will tell them, but if i have dilinquent little shits, i'm not telling them anything!!! they'll just take what i tell them and use it to their advantage!

so basically, my point is, it really depends on what my kids turn out like... if i have kids!! hah

[Porpentine]

yes i'll tell them if they want to know.

but just because i tried things doesn't mean i won't get mad if they do.

i wouldn't want my kids doing e or crystal...that is if i ever decide to have kids...unlikely.

hmphz... i have to agree with clink. totally depends what my kids would be like. i think i'll most likely tell them though... and hopefully tell them more negative things than positives. i rather know what my kids are doin then have them do drugs and "raving" behind my back...

haha! GOLD, man, that's gold! LOL :160:

I'd be straight up with my kids.

Lying to them about what I've done, and then telling them that drugs are evil will just make them interested in drugs more, and may end up getting way more into them.

That was the problem with the war on drugs in the 80s.

The governemt told our parents that drugs are evil, our parents told us the same thing when we were kids, then later on we got interested, rebel, and then BANG! A whole generation of drug addict ravers.

if you tell your kids that yeah, drugs can be fun in moderation, but watch out with them, then they'll kind of lose the whole rebellion factor that they have when you say they're bad.

i think i'll be one of those reality over desorted reality parents, so i would tell my child(ren) that I did try/use drugs. Followed by some profound statement about drugs, and cautioning.

Well, I don't really want kids to begin with, but if I ever had them, I'd likely be truthful with them if they asked or started getting more curious about them.

However, I'm hoping that by the time I have kids and they get to that age where issues like this become more prevalent (which would be far far in the future), doing drugs won't be "cool" anymore *shrugs*.
